Unbolting the stock seat was a snap, I've done that before. The Mustang seat fit great as a solo cushion, but attaching the passenger pillion threw everything out of whack.
After much shifting, pulling, pushing, sitting on, getting off, swearing, yelling, etc., the mounts finally lined up. Mission accomplished.
The difference between the stock seat and the Mustang is quite noticeable. Quite a lot heavier, more cushioning, and hopefully comfort. I think it looks nicer too.
I also installed the battery today, but stupid me forgot my key, so I couldn't start it up to see if I did it correctly. I'm looking at taking the bike out for the first ride of the year tomorrow, hopefully it starts. I'm really, really hoping it does, because I don't relish ever having to take off, or put that seat back on ever again.
